Year 7 – Wool or Copper
Gift idea: This is where things get a little tricky, but be creative! Not every year has to be a huge, expensive gift. Sometimes a little homage to the traditional gift is good enough! For copper, we like a cool set of Moscow Mule mugs with a fun date night in to make some super fun cocktails with friends!
Year 8 – Bronze or Pottery
Gift idea: bronze statue or paperweight, lamp, large potted planter

Year 9 – Pottery and Willow
Gift idea: Come on! You’ve come this far! This would be a good chance to add to the potted planters for your yard or front of your house. Or for the super literal, try planting a willow tree that will grow for years to come!

Year 10 – Tin or Aluminum
Gift idea: We say take a modern approach and upgrade tin to fine jewelry! 10 years is a huge milestone and definitely the time for a ring upgrade or an extra band of bling to add to our wedding band set. A good time for diamond stud earrings or a gorgeous bracelet! Make it something timeless that you can wear everyday!
